Twee ervare hoofde vir die Saldanhabaai-munisipaliteit se brandweer en wetstoepassing is Vrydag 5 September amptelik ingelyf.
Ann Supra-Vertue is sedert 1 Maart vanjaar die hoof van die brandweer- en reddingsdienste en Lindie Kleynhans het op 1 Junie ingeval as hoof van polisi\u00ebring en wetstoepassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 afdelings val onder die direktoraat korporatiewe- en publieke veiligheidsdienste.
Die vroue se aanstellings dra reeds vrug, het Mario Jacobs, senior bestuurder: openbare veiligheid benadruk. “Dit is ‘n nuwe hoofstuk vir die munisipaliteit en ek is opgewonde om julle impak op die gemeenskap te sien.” Volgens Pumi Mbaliswana, direkteur: korporatiewe en openbare veiligheidsdienste, neem hy reeds die “opbrengs op belegging” van di\u00e9 twee aanstellings waar. Hy het ligter toon verwys na die feit dat daar nou water by vergaderings is danksy die vrouehande wat nou lei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maar die feit dat hulle vroue is, volgens raadslid Andr\u00e9 Truter, uitvoerende burgemeester, oorskadu ni\u00e9 die feit dat hulle die mees geskikte aansoekers vir die poste was nie. “Hulle is die beste in hul onderskeie velde.”
Raadslid Michael Schaffers, Portefeuljekomiteevoorsitter: Korporatiewe Dienste en Openbare Veiligheid, het sy ontsettende trots uitgespreek oor wat Supra-Vertue en Kleynhans in die kort tydjie al vermag het. “Ek weet waarheen ons op pad is.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
